The God I chose is really small, but this God is great to me. Bes is a dwarf human, wearing lion skin. So this God is kind of a animal God, because he has lion skin, but he also has human features, so he's a half animal and half human God.
This God is important to mythology. Bes is the God of protecting the pregnant, newborn babies, and familes. Egyptains believed that Bes fought againist snake bites and scorpion bites to anyone in Egypt. Bes is known all over the Middle Kingdom as a God. The Egyptains loved him, but in Nubia, Bes was named " cat ".
If I would've build a temple or pyramid for Bes, here's a description about my Bes temple. First, build the wall out of solid silver gravel. Then, carve Bes head out of golden rock and get his tail. Next, finsh the walls and roof with a silver rock and gold rock. Last, be carefull and put Bes's head on the roof and make sure that the roof doesn't break, because if the roof breaks, it'll be a disaster.
